Support claimed that a new BIOS is in development, that is hopefully going to take care of the battery issue. I am hoping that will keep the screen for going active when the lid is up.

I find that the problem most often happens when there is pressure on the screen, like leaving it face down on the keyboard or carrying it in the sleeve, which is a tight fit, and thus also puts pressure on it.

I have asked what the estimate for a delivery of the BIOS is. I’m hoping it is soon, as the battery discharging is annoying.

Well I have had the complete battery drain for the first time since receiving my V a few weeks ago.

I was in the middle of charging and using the device and when I had finished what I was doing, I closed the keyboard and lay it flat whilst the charging cycle completed. When I remembered that the charging would have been complete about an hour later, I disconnected the charger and left it untouched until yesterday evening whereby it wouldn’t boot off battery. I had to connect the charger to get the V to start up again. Checked the battery and it was charging at 1%, the battery had been completely drained with the keyboard closed. Something obviously triggered the active status whilst the keyboard was shut as can be seen in the report at 17:50

The BIOS is in the works & we’re internally validating it + have now given it out to a small circle of people outside Eve - if there are no issues with it then we’ll surely make it available to everyone

I had been getting some success with enabling hibernation mode when the lid is closed, but recently I’ve been putting my v in the magnetic sleeve at 100%, only to find the battery drained and the sleeve warm when I take it out again. Admittedly I didn’t use the V on this occasion, which makes me suspect that it turned itself on and then stayed on in my bag, draining the battery. Will do a battery report shortly

7:30 am was when I left the house this morning, ie after I shoved the V into the magnetic sleeve. so either it’s the magnets or its some minor movement in the keyboard when the V slides into the sleeve…

EDIT: Actually it looks like it never went into hibernation mode. this is probably because I had the V with lid closed on the charging cable, then unplugged it and straight into the sleeve it went. because there was no action to close to lid (since the lid was already closed) I guess it never went into hibernation…!!
